I've been recording high quality nature sounds for over 30 years for my own personal use. When I first started, nature recordings didn't exist and when these type of recordings finally hit the market, they were so overly compressed & attenuated it didn't even remotely sound natural!
All of my recordings are captured in nature as it happens. None of my recordings have been "Computer Generated" or are short segments looped together. I have traveled to some of the most remote areas of the world to capture my nature sounds, only to find jets flying overhead or a train off in the distance blowing a horn. It is virtually impossible to capture a clean recording without the "Hand of Man" being heard. To remove all these sounds would take some serious software manipulation and destroy the integrally of the recording! Being a purest... what you hear is what you get... just like the real world:)

I remember sitting on the balcony of a little motel, not quite to Flagstaff AZ, and resting up from the long drive that got me there as well as the one planned for the next day. The sun was setting underneath the edges of an incoming storm, casting bright orange light onto everything. The rain was just starting, falling in those big dollops of water you get in the southwest. Across the highway, hugging a mesa, a train ploughed along the tracks, heading east, horn blowing. Lights in the town were coming on. The thunder was beginning to roll far off. I shuffled my chair back a few feet into the open door and watched. I think that was one of my most soothing life moments. Your recording fits that memory perfectly. T.E. MacArthur, author

[@julieharries6892]

This video is the only one that is anywhere close to sounding lije the trains that passed nonstop on tracks along side of my childhood home. Hoyse only 40-50 yds from house, my bedroom. Love love love this video!!!

[@NeCubFlyer]

+julie Harries - Thank you so much... It was my childhood memories of the trains that passed through my small town that led me to the making of this recording:)

[@AUSSIETRAINDRIVER]

Absolutely brilliant, i live next to a rail line here in Australia, and funnily enough, i have never slept so well. the sound of trains always makes me sleep well, and i drive them for a living!

[@ritasoume4407]

When I lived in Western NY as an international student, I spent two years hearing distant train horn day and night. Now I came back to Japan n really miss the sound. That was the sound of beautiful countryside of the US for me. This video recall my love for the place, friends, and memories. Thx for awesome video!!

[@GodspeedProductionsStopMotions]

western Ny has awesome railroad sounds, lots of train tracks

[@izzytrip]

This always brings back great memories. It's funny how a simple train whistle in the distance can put a happy memory and a relaxing smile on your face. I am so falling asleep to this tonight! Goodnight! :)

[@paulkowalczyk9382]

I used to enjoy listening to train horns at night, until people in my village kept complaining that the horns are to loud and and so they decided to put a "quiet zone" which means that trains are not allowed to use horns anymore and listening to this video brings back the good memories as a kid!

[@cpufreak101]

Lol my hometown literally has 4 or 5 crossings one after another and everybody is used to them since nobody complains

[@robtooyi6746]

they can if want too when im going to be an engineer ima go screw the qz's and annoy the h3ll outa them

[@mysterioso2006]

I live in a town with a decent amount of shipping, and there has always been the sound of a train blaring in the distance. It's such an oddly specific thing but it is so deeply calming to me. Combined with the fantastic rain sound I can't help but doze off!

[@Gamecock1978]

mysterioso2006, I was afraid of trains or rather the train whistle when I was a young boy. But I was also fascinated by them as well. Now that I’m grown, I love it when I am half asleep and can hear the whistle. It’s so soothing

[@judytisdel2469]

mystery girl and rèeeee

[@classicbecky1]

I just wanted to tell you how much I love this piece. My Grandma lived near railroad tracks on her farm, and hearing this makes me remember how wonderful it was as a child to lay in bed staying the night with her, listening to the trains. It sounds just the same, and the rain is a special bonus too. Thank you -- I need this right now.

[@debby579]

love this ! i love both the sound of rain, and trains, so combined together, they are soothing to the soul. (mine anyways) haha ! This relaxes me, now if only I lived near a train and lived in an area where it rained a lot I would sleep evey night like a baby !

[@ianma9886]

There's an ex-Southern Pacific locomotive trailing in the consist featured in the photo. For the foamers :P

[@kristenmarcinek2645]

I live about 10, 15 miles from a train station. I love to time when I go to sleep to listen to the train. I can always hear them clearly from even the large distance. So soothing

[@SantaFebuff]

I wish more people thought so too, a lot of people want to mute the horns, but I say it's relaxing... and it's not only because I like trains.

[@bdavis7981]

For 13 years, my sister lived in an apartment literally about 30 yards from a train crossing. The rumble and horn were very loud. When she moved from there, she actually missed it.

[@kalenc515]

I live near tracks and I’m still listening to this

[@growlie2676]

I wish you had this particular one available on Ebay.

[@sassylrhg]

Our train is 2 blocks away and comes through every hour, 24/7. I've gotten to love hearing them so much I can tell what engineer is driving the train by the sound of the whistles at night. I hope to always live very close to trains....very soothing. We also have some owls, both near and far, and an occasional coyote. I'm in the city of Charlotte, NC...10 min from urban Uptown.

[@ThatCarGuy2]

0:28 that is one loud K5HL!

[@jacobtompke8677]

Just if anyone likes it the first horn is a 3rd gen k5hl :D

[@Spirit_music_trance]

Was hard finding a video with a good train horn sound in the distance. I use ambient noise to fall asleep but seems like NONE of them have trains! So excited to go to bed to this in a few hours.

[@mjimih]

the rain has a nice soft texture to it, which isn't common.

Colder weather always helps sound travel further, i used to hear trains as far as 20km from the nearest rail line!

[@GodspeedProductionsStopMotions]

+aussietraindriver I know! Where I used to live I heard hardly any train in the hot temperatures, maybe one every once in a while but rarely, but then in the winter they were like boom boom boom every 10-15 minutes.

[@OliverCovfefe]

This + Rain It's almost like you planned to have me fall asleep at my keyboard

[@franks.8418]

wow aBSOLUTE BLISS I LUV IT GOOD ON ALL OF US WHO FIND BEAUTY IN SIMPLE THINGS

[@TrainTrackTrav]

I used live about a half a mile away from the BNSF Cushenbury branch line in Hesperia, CA. A few times a week the train to the cement plant would head up the branch line. The horn is sooooo pleasant. They came back down from the plant and back into town at around 10pm. There were many crossings in that town and they whistled for every one of them. I have since moved from that town, and I greatly miss the horns. Very nice recording!

[@steverudder3321]

I'm in Riverside, near the BNSF double track. We get multiple double stack freight trains rolling through all night long. Sometimes I hear the horns, but I always hear the sound of those powerful locos! Unfortunately, I constantly hear the 91 fwy!

[@aaroncross8677]

For most of my life, I've heard train horns in the distance, I don't like the sound of quietness and it somehow clammed me down. The town just recently installed wayside horns and it's been only on for 3 days, I miss the horns and it makes me annoyed to hear nothing but silence. Thank u for this!

[@NeCubFlyer]

+YourComputer Geek - Glad you enjoy, sorry to hear they installed the wayside horns... they suck compared to the real thing! It's only a matter of time before every crossing will have them:(

[@pacmania1982]

I absolutely love this. I find it so relaxing and reassuring. A friend of mine lives in Allentown, PA and has a guest bedroom on the third floor of his house. During the summer, when its super hot, we have the windows open and can hear the train horns in the distance. I find if I can't sleep, then this does the trick. Reminds me of being there, even when its raining, I can see out of the window and hear the horns. Love it, thanks for sharing.

[@vijucat]

This is wonderful! I used to listen to the sounds of distant trains in my childhood, and during the chill of the night, these sounds, along with the crickets chirping, were very soothing and reassuring, and your video evoked something close to that feeling again! Can you please make a version that is exactly the same as this, but without the sound of the rain? i.e., just crickets + trains.

[@Zach_Bloomquist]

I grew up in NJ during the 90's with Conrail. We had a LOT of crossing going straight thru downtown only about 3 blocks away. So i would hear sounds like this alot and it was so great. I am a huge railfan especially Big Blue and really enjoyed this video! Thank you for posting this Sounds By Knight! Great Job. Just needs more Leslie RS5T lol. JK

[@josephjoestar3275]

[@hakeemsd70m]

Alex Moon Not at all. Very good observation

[@Mr22thou]

I didn't grow up falling asleep to trains, but this sure is soothing.

[@kevinscottbell]

These three videos have become my new focus, concentration, study, and relaxation videos. I grew up up in a small town in Northeastern Ohio. The Pennsylvania/New York Central Railroad went right past my house. It was the northern border of our property. We had storms at least once a week and trains came by everyday. It was best when a train came by during a storm as I was just going to sleep or getting up in the morning. They were comforting and relaxing sounds for me.

[@captainnuzza]

I used to stay overnight in the country town of Parkes NSW Australia , the station was a main hub for passenger service but it also had a locomotive goods yard and sidings with wheat silos for grain trains. These distant train sounds make me feel like I'm in a cosy bed late at night in my motel room.

[@ethanh3704]

When I was younger, I lived right beside a train station. It was very soothing.

[@ReyaitheShadowWolf]

Oh, this is perfect.

[@ap70621]

Most of my life I lived within a few miles of a railroad. Sometimes I swear the sounds of the distant trains were incorporated into my dreams at night as I would often dream of being next to a railroad as a train approached. It only happened on nights that the train came through.

[@fsxaircanada01]

Goody, two most relaxing sounds in one

[@rogerryan5718]

close my eyes and still in my mind this rain is wet and cooling on this hot dry night

[@ronhaworth5471]

I remember as a kid listening to the train at night.The sound came across the farm fields.I could tell if a different engineer was on duty by Their distinct horn sound.My Grandfather was an engineer.

[@MaPurc]

At night, I lay in bed and hear them from different tracks and distances. It's interesting to me to see how long you can hear the sound of one train coming or going in the distance.

[@eugeneacouture9330]

I love the sound of a train. It carries a haunting sound of moving into the abyss of space with no time yet time will change your course. I was a little girl, maybe three, when my life changed profoundly as I boarded the stairs and moved far away. I had no idea at the time that the train whistle would be forever etched into my life as a symbol of the family that disappeared from me. This mystical sound will be a huge part of my upcoming film, "Eugenea's Story." I can't wait to see it on screen.

[@kiaral5747]

There’s this camp I go to at a theatre every year during the summer and right next the the building are these train tracks that many trains always seem to go through and every time that I leave camp to go home I can’t help but miss the sound of trains

[@nfc598]

This is heavenly ;)

[@laraoneal7284]

Back here again keep coming back to this. Perfect layering is such relaxing sounds. Love ❤️ your work again and again. You have the perfect balance of the horns in the background. Love trains don’t know why but I love to take a trip on one in the rain.

[@Decgyrrl]

Wow! Here's wishing this was longer than 30 mins. I live along the Metro North lines coming thru East harlem. Though I am 33 blocks over, I love hearing the sound of those trains, when they blow their horns at nite. Sometimes, it takes me to another period in time, or I'm drifting off to sleep. Good night.

[@cathywhite1729]

"Night, going to sleep now, thank you, I love this"!!! 😎💖😊😴😴😴

[@gfriedman99]

This is the best of the 3. The horns were too startling and loud in the others to fall asleep.

[@AnMadreMor]

I live in town where a few years ago they took our train along with the grain elevators away and I sure do miss that. I'm thinking of moving to a town closer to the mainline so that I can hear the train rumbling by and the horn blaring and the dinging of the crossing bell. The rain sounds are awesome as well. Thanks.

[@skylarmcclellan2642]

I used to live where its rained a lot plus by a train but I don't anymore......so this helped

[@derito5616]

I love this. Now, for variety, add distant rolling of thunder. That would be fantastic too!

[@lidh6n8]

I love the distant train horn!

[@jeremykeipper6664]

So I also went looking for train noises at night when I got slightly homesick. I grew up in a town with one RR. At first I loved this video, although thd train whistles were a bit further than what I used to hear. Then I really started to listen. The rain got monotonous and I started to wonder why this train was whistling so much. I know there are at least 2, probably 3, distinct trains but they whistle way too much and trains don't usually follow so closely. Then I also realized that there was no rumble noise as the train passed through the area. I realize that if it is far enough and if the tracks are a bit newer, you may not hear the train passing but I wish it was in the audio here. Anyway, just my 2 cents.

[@NPTNReddek]

Maybe there was a lot of railroad crossings in the area, and it is a four horn sequence for crossings

[@scottycosmos8531]

Amazing

[@doucettealexander98]

There is nothing like trains thunder and rain all together. Its sounds so real.

[@bobhara7656]

I have a question. What is it called when the train engineer, while sitting in the station, just barely pulls on the whistle rope and you hear this really low, soft/sweet lingering whistle in the air? The engineer, if you're lucky and in earshot, will do this over and over and over again for quite some time and it is just heavenly!!

[@eltessy]

Thanks for sharing! That took me back to my childhood when I visited my grandparents farm house located not far from a railroad, at night time a distant train horn awake me up while I was dreaming about...trains!!!

[@AustenKime]

This is really good man.... there arn't many videos you get meeting the criteria of trains in a storm... and this ones really good... I'm currently trying to track down a decent sound file of a train thunder along tracks in areally torrential thunder storm with wind and the occasional train horn going... unfortuneately such a thing doesnt appear to exsist....
